In a message on Thursday 02-11-16 Jean Parrot said to Holger Granholm:

GM Jean,

or should I say GN, because of the time stamp of your msg?

JP>     Did you finally get the language changed ?

No, not yet, but for all programmes I have installed I've chosen english
and that works OK. As far as possible, I have installed most programs in
another partition than C: but some, for example Opera doesn't give me
that choice, but insists on installing only to C:.

Today I will take a deep dive with my file manager, to try to find out
if the US-english package is included. It should be about the same size
as the swedish language package.

If not, I'll have to import it. That's what people tell me to do.
I can't ask my GS because he had a colleague to upgrade the machine.

There's also another problem that I may have to get help with.
The machine still insists that my GS has an account, and doesn't allow
me to create a folder for "downloaded files", under my name.

Of course I have set my account to be ADMIN, but apparently my GS's
account is above me, :o(

Excuse me but I don't know the Intel Agent, and what it's supposed to do
Regarding the access to the BIOS in the laptop, I did find the key to
get into it, and change settings.

I was far-sighted enough to make a recovery USB stick before I started
playing with the laptop. Even though TI9 refuses to run under Win10, the
recovery stick can be used to make a clone with the Macrium Reflect Free
program.

For normal backups I use the EASEUS backup program. That recovery stick
is 8Gb but for a full backup (without compression) of C:, I need 20 Gb
today.
